Killer Croc Replaced King Shark In Suicide Squad


Despite initial reports crediting actor Raymond Olubawale ("Resident Evil" franchise) as Nanaue a.k.a. King Shark as part of the lineup for David Ayer's villain centric Suicide Squad, it seems that is no longer the case.

Speaking to fans in a Twitter Q&A, Ayer confessed that between the amount of worked needed and his own discomfort in having a fully computer generated character in the film, he scrapped King Shark from the initial Suicide Squad lineup and opted instead to go with the reptilian villain Killer Croc played by Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje.

Now, whether the character can still be seen in the film is a different matter altogether as Olubawale is still being credited with the role, so maybe King Shark will have one of those blink-and-you-miss-it moments. Who knows, well Ayer knows, but he's not telling.

Suicide Squad opens in theaters on August 5.

Suicide Squad follows the events of Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, and takes place in a post-Superman world where the government tries to determine how to respond in the event that an alien with more villainous intentions visits Earth. Ruthless intelligence officer Amanda Waller (Viola Davis) offers to recruit society’s worst criminals, those possessing lethal skills and superhuman powers. Her first target: the possessed archaeologist June Moone/Enchantress (Cara Delevingne).

When Midway City is threatened by a powerful mystical enemy, Waller’s plan gets the go-ahead. She cuts deals with the whole squad of prisoners: Deadshot (Will Smith) gets his Second Amendment rights ­reinstated, Harley (Margot Robbie) is set free from her cage, Diablo (Jay ­Hernandez) steps out of his fireproof prison, Boomerang (Jai Courtney) and Slipknot (Adam Beach) each get to wield their signature weapons once more, and Killer Croc ­(Adewale Akinnuoye-­Agbaje) emerges from the swamp. The only condition is this: Obey orders or die. This is strictly enforced by squad leader Rick Flag (Joel Kinnaman), the samurai Katana (Karen Fukuhara), and of course the explosive devices – developed by Wayne Enterprises – inserted into their necks. However, the arrival of the tatted-up Gotham City mega-criminal, the Joker (Jared Leto), might doom the mission thanks to his plan to reunite with his true love, Harley.
